Are Xbox One buyers REALLY paying $100 more for weaker hardware?

While this thread was partly joking and partly serious, the point of it is that the Xbox One costs $500 because of all the crap M$ packed into the box and not because they're charging more for less power. If the crap in the box doesn't appeal to you, that's fine.

On a different note, a tree fell on my home about a week ago because of a horrible storm. I just got the insurance check today and my contractor says it's more than enough to cover the repairs. Add that to the bonus I get every year in March and I think I'm gonna buy an Xbox One tomorrow. Then I'll once again own every console on the market! Is that Titanfall bundle/Price thingy going to be in the USA, too?

i really cant find solid info about it b/c everyone is ignoring fact and just arguing and mocking MS for the price drop

 

US has the TF edition console (which is just a diffrent box console is the same color and all) and with TF digital aswell as 30 days of live for $500 dont know if 30 days of live came with all xb1 though.  also dont know if you can walk into any game retailer buy a standard xb1 and get a physical copy of TF for free which many are impling today with there high projictions for HW and TF SW if its just the special edition TF bundle that is $500 i dont see any meaniful sales boost for either HW and SW as most of the time these SE bundles are limited in supply and all the regular green model XB1 that are $500 will still see high shelf time as they did in Jan

There is no way that can be true. It would be retailer specific. Titanfall Xb1 Bundle is just a game bundle. They aren't giving away TitanFall for free.
